Of course, we’ll be watching this closely and are open to adjustments here if we identify a need.The issues raised by world buff play in WoW Classic have been discussed at great length for years now. We feel that loot scarcity was an important part of what made original World of Warcraft challenging and hope to recreate that feeling.
Part of the challenge of Season of Mastery is the speedy arrival of content throughout the year, and this raises the notion that you may not approach every new challenge with the level of preparation you did in WoW Classic. Loot and World Buff DetailsThere have been a lot of discussions about loot, and specifically the rate at which players can get loot from raids, as we don’t currently have plans to increase that. When the Season of Mastery launches, existing WoW Classic Era realms will remain configured as they are now.
There’s certainly room to include additional adjustments if they’re consistent with this season’s design goals.While these are significant changes, we want to make it very clear that these adjustments aren’t intended to become a permanent change to all versions of WoW Classic going forward. Of course, these are just the changes we’ve announced so far, and we’re still reviewing feedback and suggestions from the community. This is our core design pillar that speaks to many of the changes we’re testing in the Beta, and you can see this reflected in adjustments such as increased quest XP, a 12-month content release cycle, and the Honor System and certain Battlegrounds being available from the launch of the game.We’re increasing the difficulty of raid encounters, restoring raid mechanics removed in early iterations of certain encounters, and we’re prohibiting the use of world buffs inside raid instances. The main goal for the Season of Mastery is provide a WoW Classic experience that brings about “Faster Progression and More Challenging Content”. Design IntentionsFirst, it’s important to explain what the Season of Mastery is, a little of what it isn’t, and our overall thoughts about Seasonal WoW Classic. With the Beta now underway, we wanted to take a moment to talk a bit about the philosophy around Seasonal WoW Classic. We’ve been very pleased by the reception to our WoW Classic Season of Mastery announcement last week, and we’ve seen a great many questions from players about this new version of WoW Classic.
